William Perry Killed in Crash after Attempting to Pass School Bus on SR 31 in Charlotte County

Charlotte County, Florida (January 27, 2018) – A 60-year-old Fort Myers man was killed in a deadly crash Friday afternoon after attempting to overtake another vehicle in Charlotte County.

According to a report by the Florida Highway Patrol, the accident happened on State Road 31, just north of Cook Brown Road, shortly after 5 p.m. Friday, January 26.

Troopers said 60-year-old William Perry of Fort Myers was driving southbound on State Road 31 when he attempted to overtake a school bus and collided head-on with a northbound car.

The crash caused the Perry vehicle to rotate and crash into a third vehicle.

FHP said Perry died at the scene.

Three people were taken to an area hospital for treatment of minor injuries.

FHP is investigating to determine the cause of the crash.

Our deepest condolences go out to the family of the deceased.

It is difficult having to face the fact that a loved one is no longer there, but even more troublesome is coming to learn that they were brutally killed by the hands of malicious individuals. Justice needs to be sought in response to this criminal act, although at the firm of Percy Martinez for personal injury, we fully comprehend and emphasize with these victims because no amount of compensation can ever bring a loved one back. Along with the criminal punishments that these individuals will face, they could face the legal sanctions of a civil lawsuit for wrongful death.

Review

I’ve never been a fan of lawyers, but I needed help because I was lost. I don’t really want to disclose what happened to me, but what I can say is that Percy helped me through it. He was so sensitive and great at what he did.
